Engine Ice Top Off?
So about 3 years ago, I flushed my coolant completely and put in some Engine Ice. I checked it again last week, turns out the reservoir is empty. Do I have to drain the system again or can I just buy some more Engine Ice and top it off by adding it to the reservoir?

It's totally up to you, keep in mind coolant needs to be flush and change every couple of years.
Your call.

you might want to figure out how the coolant in the reservoir disappeared.

3yrs and you need a top off... seems normal to me. Fill it up and go from there. If it's the "ready to use" type, then fill it up and an keep an eye on it.

After not checking it for 3 years, I would say, you need to check it more often obviously.
No worries after that.
